And I liked the other students. Sure, I hadn’t spent a lot of time with all of them, but the ones I did, I quite liked.
And best of all, I wasn’t crazy.
I scoffed at that reminder.
This room was more than I could have ever thought I’d have. So large and lavish. Everything I needed all in this space. And no more cooking apparently.
No more struggling to make ends meet, no more stealing or shitty jobs.
I smiled as I stood up and headed for the bathroom.
But as I undressed and climbed into the shower, I kept thinking about my hellhounds and their sole purpose of protecting me. That was no way to live. They deserved to have their own dreams. Why was I so special?
Right. Daughter of a Prince of Hell. That one was still something I was struggling to wrap my head around.
My mother had never spoken about him, so I’d never known what to think of him.
A Prince of Hell was certainly not my first thought.
And what about my mother’s death? There was more behind that too. But I needed to focus on the here and now, as much as I wanted to know, tonight had other unsettling things in store for me.
I washed myself, enjoying the warm spray of water on my skin as I wondered what midnight would bring tonight.
Just what powers would I have?
I finished up quickly, sliding the frosted glass door across as I stepped out.
I let out a strangled sound as I found someone standing right before me.
Creeper just stared at me, quickly glancing over me.
“Are you okay? Why’d you make that sound?” he asked.

I went to growl at him, but his confused look made the snappy remark die in my throat.
Right. He probably didn’t realize he couldn’t just pop up in my bathroom.
Which he’d done before, when I thought he wasn’t real. Oh God.
I sighed, closing my eyes as I calmed myself.
“You can’t just come into other people’s bathrooms,” I said slowly.
“Why?” he asked as he shifted uncomfortably.
“You just can’t,” I said through gritted teeth.
“That’s a weird rule,” he murmured, but then he frowned at me. “It upset you.”
“It startled me,” I corrected him.
“Okay. I won’t do it again,” he nodded as he shifted uneasily again.
I drew in a deep breath, but then my eyes fell.
I just stared at the very obvious erection he had.
